+ and will be indicated as such.
+
+ Attributes(type) | Description
+ ----------------- | ------------
+ AllowInlineMediaPlayback(boolean) | *Default: false* <br/> **Platforms
supported: iOS** <br/> Set to true to allow HTML5 media playback to appear
inline within the screen layout, using browser-supplied controls rather than
native controls. For this to work, add the webkit-playsinline attribute to any
```<video>``` elements.
+ AndroidLaunchMode(string) | *Default: singleTop* <br/> Allowed values:
standard, singleTop, singleTask, singleInstance <br/> **Platforms supported:
Android** <br/> Sets the Activity android:launchMode attribute. This changes
what happens when the app is launched from app icon or intent and is already
running.
+ AppendUserAgent(string) | **Platforms supported: Android** <br/> If
set, the value will append to the end of old UserAgent of webview. When using
with OverrideUserAgent, this value will be ignored.
+ AppendUserAgent(string) | **Platforms supported: iOS** <br/> If set,
the value will append to the end of old UserAgent of webview. When using with
OverrideUserAgent, this value will be ignored.
+ BackgroundColor(string) | **Platforms supported: Android, BlackBerry**
<br/> Supports a four-byte hex value, with the first byte representing the
alpha channel, and standard RGB values for the following three bytes.
+ BackupWebStorage(string) | *Default: cloud* <br/> Allowed values: none,
local, cloud. <br/> **Platforms supported: iOS** <br/> Set to cloud to allow
web storage data to backup via iCloud. Set to local to allow only local backups
via iTunes sync. Set to none prevent web storage backups.
+ ChildBrowser(string) | *Default: enable* <br/> **Platforms supported:
BlackBerry** <br/> Disables child browser windows. By default, apps launch a
secondary browser window to display resources accessed via window.open() or by
specifying a _blank anchor target. Specify disable to override this default
behavior.
+ CordovaWebViewEngine(string) | *Default: CDVUIWebViewEngine* <br/>
**Platforms supported: iOS** <br/> This sets the WebView engine plugin to be
used to render the host app. The plugin must conform to the
CDVWebViewEngineProtocol protocol. The 'value' here should match the 'feature'
name of the WebView engine plugin that is installed. This preference usually
would be set by the WebView engine plugin that is installed, automatically.
+ DefaultVolumeStream(string) | *Default: default* <br/> **Platforms
supported: Android**<br/> Added in cordova-android 3.7.0, This preference sets
which volume the hardware volume buttons link to. By default this is "call" for
phones and "media" for tablets. Set this to "media" to have your app's volume
buttons always change the media volume. Note that when using Cordova's media
plugin, the volume buttons will dynamically change to controlling the media
volume when any Media objects are active.
+ DisallowOverscroll(boolean) | *Default: false* <br/> **Platforms
supported: iOS, Android** <br/> Set to **true** if you don't want the interface
to display any feedback when users scroll past the beginning or end of content.
On iOS, overscroll gestures cause content to bounce back to its original
position. on Android, they produce a more subtle glowing effect along the top
or bottom edge of the content. <br/>
+ EnableViewportScale(boolean) | *Default: false* <br/> **Platforms
supported: iOS** <br/> Set to true to allow a viewport meta tag to either
disable or restrict the range of user scaling, which is enabled by default.
Place a viewport such as the following in the HTML to disable scaling and fit
content flexibly within the rendering WebView: <br/> ```<meta name='viewport'
content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1, user-scalable=no' />```
+ ErrorUrl(URL) | *Default: null* <br/> **Platforms supported: Android**
<br/> If set, will display the referenced page upon an error in the application
instead of a dialog with the title "Application Error".
+ ErrorUrl(string) | **Platforms supported: iOS** <br/> If set, will
display the referenced local page upon an error in the application.
+ FullScreen(boolean) | *Default: false* <br/> Allows you to hide the
status bar at the top of the screen.
+ GapBetweenPages(float) | *Default: 0* <br/> **Platforms supported:
iOS** <br/> The size of the gap, in points, between pages.
+ HideKeyboardFormAccessoryBar(boolean) | *Default: false* <br/>
**Platforms supported: BlackBerry** <br/> set to true to hide the additional
toolbar that appears above the keyboard, helping users navigate from one form
input to another.
+ InAppBrowserStorageEnabled (boolean) | *Default: true* <br/>
**Platforms supported: Android** <br/> Controls whether pages opened within an
InAppBrowser can access the same localStorage and WebSQL storage as pages
opened with the default browser.
+ KeepRunning(boolean) | *Default: true* <br/> **Platforms supported:
Android** <br/> Determines whether the application stays running in the
background even after a [pause](../../../cordova/events/events.pause.html)
event fires. Setting this to false does not kill the app after a
[pause](../../../cordova/events/events.pause.html) event, but simply halts
execution of code within the cordova webview while the app is in the background.
+ KeyboardDisplayRequiresUserAction(boolean) | *Default: true* <br/>
**Platforms supported: iOS** <br/> Set to false to allow the keyboard to appear
when calling focus() on form inputs.
+ LoadUrlTimeoutValue(number in milliseconds) | *Default: 20000, 20
seconds* <br/> **Platforms supported: Android** <br/> hen loading a page, the
amount of time to wait before throwing a timeout error.
+ LoadingDialog(string) | *Default: null* <br/> **Platforms supported:
Android** <br/> If set, displays a dialog with the specified title and message,
and a spinner, when loading the first page of an application. The title and
message are separated by a comma in this value string, and that comma is
removed before the dialog is displayed.
+ LogLevel(string) | *Default: ERROR* <br/> Allowed values: ERROR, WARN,
INFO, DEBUG, VERBOSE <br/> **Platforms supported: Android** <br/> Sets the
minimum log level through which log messages from your application will be
filtered.
+ MediaPlaybackAllowsAirPlay(boolean) | *Default: true* <br/> **Platforms
supported: iOS** <br/> Set to false to prevent Air Play from being used in this
view. Available in default UIWebView and WKWebView.
+ MediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction(boolean) | *Default: false* <br/>
**Platforms supported: iOS** <br/> Set to true to prevent HTML5 videos or
audios from playing automatically with the autoplay attribute or via JavaScript.
+ Min/Max UAP(Regex) | Allowed values: **/(Microsoft.+? |
Windows.+?)-(MinVersion | MaxVersionTested)/i** <br/> **Platforms
supported: Windows** <br/> Sets the min/max UAP versions for Windows. If
nothing is specified, Windows.Universal at version 10.0.10240.0 will be used.
+ Orientation(string) | *Default: default* <br/> Allowed values: default,
landscape, portait <br/> Allows you to lock orientation and prevent the
interface from rotating in response to changes in orientation. <br/> **NOTE:**
The default value means Cordova will strip the orientation preference entry
from the platform's manifest/configuration file allowing the platform to
fallback to its default behavior. For iOS, to specify both portrait & landscape
mode you would use the platform specific value 'all'.
+ OverrideUserAgent(string) | **Platforms supported: Android** <br/> If
set, the value will replace the old UserAgent of webview. It is helpful to
identify the request from app/browser when requesting remote pages. Use with
caution, this may causes compitiable issue with web servers. For most cases,
use AppendUserAgent instead.
